Gone in Seconds by Ed James

A baby missing. A family in pieces. A shocking secret that can't be told.

Landon and Jennifer Bartlett have everything--money, influence and a picture-perfect family. But it means nothing when their lives are torn apart the day someone breaks into their plush mansion and takes their newborn child right from his cot.

FBI Agent Max Carter investigates child abduction cases. He has a reputation for working all hours to find every missing child on his watch--after all, he was once one himself. When he visits the Bartletts' sprawling home in an exclusive estate in the suburbs of Seattle, he's immediately suspicious of Landon Bartlett and his brother Sam.

As Carter delves deeper into the lives of the brothers, he finds a web of dubious business deals and lies that could cost the Bartlett's their entire family fortune. And it's clear they will do anything to keep their secrets--but would they withhold vital information that could lead him to baby Ky's kidnapper?

As Carter begins a cat-and-mouse game with the kidnapper, he receives some startling news from home, which stops him in his tracks. And when a young woman is spotted boarding a bus out of town with a baby fitting Ky's description, he must decide whether to risk everything to find the missing child or save his own family.

Fans of Kendra Elliot, Melinda Leigh and Robert Dugoni will love this heart-pumping, pulse-racing crime thriller from bestselling author Ed James.
